I missed a few days;; I'll do three to make up for it.

escape
my mother says that
when i was younger, i ran
everywhere i went

that i watched the sky
searching for something unknown
my head in the clouds

i am slower now
and i don't run much these days
but i'm still searching

The Intersection

Raindrops carve the light
into thousands of pieces.
I'm doubly blind.

Collapse

Folded and contained -
a trick that makes shock ring when
we spring out again.

I Remember...

I remember the
last time I was silent, as
if ants choose my fate.

I don't drink tea. Coffee sends
wakeful earth to my
nose. Smells, like mornings; alone.

There's a Voice Acting Forum Now

Times like this make me
want to be a voice actor.
Soon my time will come...

I was born too late
This is no world for a poet
Will my words be heard?

Ooh, this is fun...


Today I learned I'm a pimp and a cool. Upvote me to karma heaven, bitches.

Here's my letterboxd that I don't update.

Here's my IMDb that I update more.

10 Days

I move slowly like
Earth far away from the sun.
Closer is faster.

I'm going to start another little haiku mini-series today. These ones attempt to encapsulate how I felt about each year of my schooling, starting with 7th grade. Mmm'kay, here it goes:

Changes, Challenges, Choices

Named after the health
curriculum on purpose.
Shut up, Ms. Thorne. Now.

Sorry I'm Late

I was too busy
beating myself up rather
than posting haikus.

Anyway, 8th grade this time:

A Melting Pot of Stress

I built the bridge of
efficiency which bowed to
procrastination.

9th Grade:

The Beautiful View

I realized my past
meant more to me than present...
so I buried it.

Nicely said! For me,
the past, present, and future
are all bittersweet...

We have the same eyes.
Yours are blue and mine brown and
just for each other.

10th grade:

Eyes

Pathetic disguise
is in mine. The last of my
kind to just see eyes.

Thanks, man! My passion

11th Grade (the infamous junior year, yes?)

SAIL

I diffused through walls
like a ghost, flitting between
real life and escape.

Hmm...that was a short miniseries.

I'll do the 12th grade
later, as it's not even
halfway over yet.

Never Satisfied

Fun is dictated
by when it ends. Vacations:
more stressful than school.

Chattering bones are
Dancing under clear blue skies.
Where is your God now?

I live life on the

haunts me tomorrow.
